Interior Door Handles

I have manual windows on my '91 Explorer and all of my interior door pulls are shot. I have the part number (F17B 7824101 LH, etc.) but I cannot find them anywhere. I have emailed a couple of Ford dealers and have gotten no replies.

Does anyone have any suggestions for something that may be more sturdy, or where I might find the original parts? My interior is blue, which makes it a bit more difficult to find parts.

Thanks!

The door pulls breaking is a common problem with Ford.
Mine went on my '97 EXPL.
Suggest you remove the pull handle, then take it to your local parts supplier.
Cost is around $10-12.00.
If you need some help removing the handle let me know, it's easier than you might think.

Good luck finding some. As far as I know now there were a total of 3 made with manual windows. Yours, my wifes and one in a wrecking yard, but those ones have my name on them. I have searched hi and low as well with no luck. Hope you find something.

Yes, I'd love some help with removing. They seem to wrap around, but I am not sure about where they attach in the back.

Are you saying they can find something like it, or sort of rebuild what's left? The vinyl is ok, just all the foam has rotted and fallen out.

Thanks!

Hi, I will try and help you find some! first, two door or four door? with or without carpet trim on panel?
They all look like they are obsolete from Ford but I will run a parts search and see if I can find one for you.

Thanks Ed

4 doors. Are you asking if there is carpet on any part of the door? If so, no there isn't.

Thanks again for the reply and I hope something turns up.
